Dear racingagainstcancer,
Why can't you non car guys quit ruining a classics originality because you don't like the factory colors and then change it and ruin it????? If you don't like the color DON'T buy it!!!!!! Now it's only worth 10-18K because after a true classic muscle car guy gets it, he will have to disassemble it again and have it actually "restored" and that will be another 10-20K!!! A restored car is put back to factory original specs the way it came from the factory!!!!!!! '

My Reply:
Dear bgasioro,
Where the hell does it say I changed this car??????????????I bought the car they way it is and I'm ok with it. If you don't like they way it looks then don't bid on it. At least I was honest in my description. Nuff Said!!!!!!!!!

I thought you did a good job of explaining yourself without going overboard or resorting to name calling. IMO, GJ :)

I like the color change and it was done right by the looks of it.

Dale hit it on the head.
